MEAN WELL Power Supplies With UPS Function

MEAN WELL produces a range of switch mode power supplies that have been specifically designed for use in UPS applications.

 

These are referred to in most MEAN WELL brochures and catalogues as the ‘Security Series’.

Why ‘Security Series’? Well, this is one of the most common applications they are used in. However, this range of power supplies is perfect for use in any UPS type of application, where you need to trickle charge a battery and have the battery power switch in automatically when the AC drops off. For example, to provide a reliable power source to an elevator's control system.

MEAN WELL’s security series power supplies are available in two form factors: DIN Rail power supply, or enclosed type power supply.

The DIN rail mount DRC series is available in 40W and 60W models with two output options available, A or B.
